Free Strathaven Cat Flap Fitting Quotes

The most fundamental form of cat flap, is merely that. A hole is cut into an external door and a flexible material is fixed over it to offer a bit of protection from the weather. The vast majority of Strathaven cat owners would favour something a bit more weatherproof and secure for a main door to their property, although this could be suitable for an outhouse door or garden fence panel.

Because this solution can allow other animals or cats to enter your home, it isn't at all ideal, although it can be enhanced to some degree by holding the flap in position by adding a magnetic strip.

Stepping up from a magnetic strip are magnetically controlled, infra-red or RF chip designs of cat flap. This involves your cat wearing a collar that's got either a magnet, IR or RF chip encased inside it. Therefore any animal that does not have one of these special collars cannot leave or get into your house. The point that any other cat in the Strathaven area that's got a similar style of collar can get into your property, is the drawback with this still fairly basic kind of cat flap. An upgrade to this equipment is an RF cat flap/collar system which has a unique identifier that can be programmed by the cat owner.

Fitting a cat flap which can be operated by your pet's own microchip, is the next level in entry gadgets for felines in Strathaven. The memory of these battery powered cat flaps can be programmed with one or more microchip details (if you have more than one cat), to give exclusive access. Whenever your cat is close to the flap, it unlocks and allows solely your microchipped pets to enter or exit.

No matter which cat flap you purchase, it should have the ability to be locked in position. The majority of cat flaps sold these days have a 4-way locking mechanism. Which means it's got the capability to allow only entrance into your premises, be fully locked, enable exit only, or be put in two way entry and exit mode. This will provide you with solutions for all times of night and day, to have control over precisely how your cat flap operates. The ability to carry out different functions in accordance with the time of day, and in line with your pet's and your needs is also a possibility with some of the more expensive brands of cat flap.

Putting in a cat flap yourself can be pretty simple if you've got a solid timber door, and respectable do-it-yourself skills. Not in any circumstances should you try and fit a cat flap in a reinforced PVC door or in a double glazed window panel. This kind of installation calls for the attention of a pro, and there are dedicated cat flap installers and skilled odd job men who are delighted to accept such a task.

INSTALLING CAT FLAPS IN STRATHAVEN

Double Glazing Installation - If your cat flap needs to be fitted into a double glazed window or door panel, and your chosen "tradesman" endeavours to drill a hole in it, stop the work right away and give them the boot. A new cat flap can not be fitted into a pre-existing double glazed door panel or window pane. Making a hole in your double glazing damages not merely the security and strength of the panel, but it removes the insulation properties too. In actual fact, it renders the glazing unsafe and it should never be done.

A reputable Strathaven cat flap installer will carefully take the measurements of your existing pane and order a tailor-made one from a local glazing company. As part of its structure this new double glazing unit will have a pre-cut hole, which the cat flap can be fitted perfectly into. This may take a week or more to produce, however it's the only way to install a cat flap into an existing double glazed or patio door. After construction, the old glass pane can be removed, and the new one put in its place. It's now possible to fit your new cat flap.

uPVC Door Panels - Cat flaps can normally be installed into uPVC doors. You or your installer will have to verify what the internal construction of you door is, since for additional security some uPVC door panels are made with a reinforced steel lining. The models of door with a one-piece panel are the best for installing cat flaps, so if yours has got a slatted style panel, it may be better to swap this for a single panel.

Wall Installation - If, for either aesthetic or safety reasons, you do not wish to have a hole cut into a door, you could opt to install your cat flap on an exterior wall of your home in Strathaven. A cat flap entrance in a wall calls for a little more equipment and skill to install, so it's definitely best left to the pros. You will find there are a couple of possibilities for this type of installation, including a straight through tunnel version, or a right angled (through pillar) pattern. With this type of installation a metal or plastic, square open ended insert is fitted into a square hole neatly cut out of your specified wall. The cat flap you have chosen can then be mounted on both ends to permit your furry friend to exit and enter as it wishes.

Replacing an Existing Cat Flap in Strathaven - If you already have a cat flap installed on your window, door or wall, but it is broken or not functioning correctly, the existing hole can, with luck, be re-used for the installation of a new one. A reputable cat flap installer in Strathaven will be able to remove your old cat flap, and mount a new one in its place without damaging the surrounding wall, door or window.

When your installation involves a pre-cut hole in a double glazed panel, it is necessary to check that this was previously done in the right way, before fitting the new cat flap. The panel will need to be removed and replaced to avoid any security and safety problems, if it is found that this is not the case and a bodge job was made of the original installation.
